This week's conversation is with Phil Kornachuk, a highly-trained military expert with 22 years of service in the U.S. Army Special Ops Command. After serving with both the 2nd Battalion Rangers and the Green Berets, being deployed 12 times, and receiving a Silver Star – the 3rd highest award for valor in combat – Phil decided to leave his military career behind and channel his experience into a new kind of mission: helping people and businesses forge high performance leadership skills. Indexing on self-mastery, mindset training and resilience, Phil's passion for developing purpose-driven leaders and high performing teams has taken the form of executive coaching, 1-on-1 training, hands-on workshops and even back-country expeditions through his company StoneWater Training. Phil and I share the belief that there are no shortcuts, and you'll hear all about how this high school dropout who grew up on a dairy farm in Ontario, Canada cultivated a mental toughness and leadership acumen that's even more impressive than his physical fortitude. In this conversation, you'll hear how Phil exemplifies true grit, a detailed story of how he earned his Silver Star, and how his philosophy came to be “know yourself, lead yourself, lead others.”-----You can WATCH this episode on our YouTube channel.Connect with us on our Instagram.For more information and shownotes from every episode, head to findingmastery.com.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Glenn Beck. CHILLING: Veteran DESTROYED by Deep State. Are You Next? The FBI began targeting Mike Glover, a former Green Beret who also worked for the CIA, after he founded a company that taught people how to be self-reliant. To Mike, the message was clear: The U.S. government will destroy anyone it cannot control. Why else would officials target a veteran who served 10 tours of duty, with five rotations in Iraq conducting elite operations? But Mike tells Glenn that this is happening all across the country: “The system is flawed,” and only a reset will fix it. He offers insight into the elite operations we are never told about, lifting the veil on the inner workings of the CIA and FBI, which he believes are acting like the enemy of the people. As a former Green Beret who worked closely with the CIA, he has personally seen how government bloat and corruption make situations like the 2012 Benghazi attack even worse. Plus, he explains why he is “100%” certain that Jeffrey Epstein was working with the intelligence community. But despite all he's seen and all the attacks against him, he's not backing down. As owner and CEO of Fieldcraft Survival, he teaches people how to be their own first responders and even survive a total disaster. His upcoming book, “Prepared: A Manual for Surviving Worst-Case Scenarios,” is a practical guide for resilience in the face of the apocalypse, which very well could happen sooner than later.

On Episode 134, Scott Mann talked about his humble beginnings - enlisting in the Army, working his way up to Special Ops, and discovering some of the most untold parts of the world in a way only a good soldier can. But Scott's leadership, and the struggles that came with it, were only small part of that story. In Part 2, Scott digs into the challenges that come with leading, and the often absurd political machinations that come with it, before diving into the aptly named Operation Pineapple Express, reviewing his charitable works, and explaining just how he managed to get on a stage in his acclaimed play 'Last Out: Elegy of a Green Beret.' ----------Chapters:00:00 - Intro01:17 - Running the Ops Center17:29 - Navigating Leadership Waters23:13 - Challenging Calls40:56 - Regretful Ops46:07 - Retiring on My Terms58:16 - Gender, Vaccines, & Social Engineering in the Military01:02:50 - Different Ways in Ukraine01:11:26 - Veteran Entrepreneurs01:15:21 - Last Out: Elegy of a Green Beret01:19:01 - Operation Pineapple Express----------Support Scott Mann: Website - https://scottmann.comPlay - Last Out: Elegy of a Green Beret - https://lastoutplay.comBook - Operation Pineapple Express - https://operationpineappleexpress.comPodcast - The Rooftop Podcast - https://spoti.fi/3FIz3vsYouTube - https://bit.ly/3lsoR3vInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/scottmannauthorFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/ScottMannAuthor----------Sponsors: BUBS Naturals The BUBS namesake derives from Glen ‘BUB' Doherty, who was heroically killed in Benghazi, Libya in 2012.

The war in Ukraine may have distracted you from the US war in Afghanistan. A war that lasted 20 years and cost nearly 2 trillion dollars. You can likely remember the images seen on TV from August of 2021 of Kabul airport as the US pulled out. 1000s of Afghans rushed onto the tarmac of Kabul International Airport, so desperate to escape the Taliban that they were clinging to military jets as they took off. This all happened as the Taliban enforced their rule over the Capitol. War has horrendous costs, but so does abandoning allies. Our guest for the next two episodes is someone who understands the cost of war firsthand. Scott Mann is a retired Army lieutenant colonel and was part of the elite Green Berets for 23 years. He's done military service tours around the world, including Columbia, Iraq, and multiple tours in Afghanistan. He was a he is a warrior storyteller and the founder of rooftop leadership. He shares the rapport-building skills he learned in Special Forces to help today's leaders make better human connections in high-stakes, low, trust engagement. Scott Mann is also a New York Times bestselling author of Operation Pineapple Express. It's a third-person narrative detailing the harrowing story of the veteran volunteers and Afghan allies who navigated the US abandonment of Afghanistan in August of 2021. He has since founded Operation Pineapple Express Relief to support the emergency needs of Afghan allies, such as safe passage out of Afghanistan and unforeseen resettlement needs.

Former Green Beret and CIA war contractor Chris Cathers visits Mickey in the Chicagoland to talk about important work with the Brothers Keeper Veteran Foundation. Cathers did 12 deployments to the Middle East and North Africa. State-side he spent fifteen years in the defense industry and became a corporate turnaround specialist. For years, Chris silently struggled with post-traumatic stress (PTS), depression, and suicidal ideation, fearful that such a diagnosis would negatively impact his career. Additionally in late 2019, he was diagnosed with a sporadic form of advanced bone cancer called chondrosarcoma. Facing these trials led Chris to get involved with “Brother's Keeper,” a documentary to raise awareness of the veteran suicide epidemic and help for our veterans. You can follow Chris on Instagram @Chris_Cathers or learn more about the documentary and non-profit at BKVF.org.

Flaherty. For 15 years David and Richard cultivated a deep bond and friendship which ultimately led Richard to tell David his remarkable life story. Sadly, before Richard could finish telling David his full life story, he was killed mysteriously. “The Giant Killer: American hero, mercenary, spy…The incredible true story of the smallest man to serve in the U.S. Military – Green Beret Captain Richard J.

Dale Buckner is a 24-year Army yeteran who retired as a colonel, a former Green Beret and is now the CEO of international security firm Global Guardian. Recently, his team evacuated thousands of people during the COVID border crisis and the violent conflicts in Ukraine, Russia, and Afghanistan. In this episode, Dale talks about the highly specialized yet dysfunctional nature of special forces teams. However, the training always pays off as there is a high degree of success whenever these teams are deployed. Dale also talks about reinventing yourself after life in the military, and his route was to create and become an entrepreneur. The skills taught in the military cannot be replicated by corporate America, so Dale finds that veterans are highly suited for a range of careers once they retire. Dale also talks about the inevitability of politics when you are a general officer and how heartening it is to see his cohort, who are warriors first before politicians, get promoted to these ranks.

As the author of a bestselling book with the title, "Deliberate Discomfort," you can imagine our guest today is a perfect fit for the Forging Mettle podcast. Jason Van Camp is a former special forces soldier and now teaches people how to proactively seek out hard things through his company Mission Six Zero. In this discussion I was fascinated by Jason's origin story of his company, how he talks about failure, and what he believes we need to do to live our best lives. Show notes: Jason B.A. Van Camp is what Malcolm Gladwell would refer to as an Outlier; an exceptional person who is successful not just because of his personal accomplishments but because of his will to win and the unique ability and willingness to unlock the potential of others. A decorated Green Beret, world traveler, entrepreneur, author, and loyal friend, Jason has mastered the art of storytelling that reflects many of his own life adventures. Jason is the chairman of “mission six zero.” He is also the executive director of Warrior Rising, which is a non-profit that empowers U.S. military veterans.

Hey everybody this is the TCP and I am John Stamp, Tiger-dog has ditched me tonight. It is really nice out and he is laying outside under a tree. Only one announcement tonight. Ty Benhoff 2 is a wrap. I'm thinking of a couple tentative titles, the one I'm leaning on right now is Overmatch. Don't know, the hardest part of this whole writing thing is A: coming up with a title and B reducing 100,000 words to a blurb on the back cover. It's a work in progress, and now I'm editing, which is not my favorite part, but the big lift is over. Hopefully Overmatch, or whatever I end up calling the second Ty Benhoff novel is heading your way before fall. We'll see. Oh, and like I kind of hinted at over time, Billy West did in fact steal the show from Ty. She turned out to be pretty awesome, a good contrast to Ty. She might need her own book at some point. At the least I need to figure out how to make her a recurring character. I'll figure it out. Anyway, continued thanks for the reviews and comments of not only That's Criminal but the books as well. And yes I have gotten the message that many of you would like to see Alex and Charlie from Brother's Keeper back, and yes I've been working on it. I just haven't nailed down the right plot yet. A sequel to Brother's Keeper isn't a no. It's a, to be determined at this point. Stay tuned. Alright. Tonight, I get to talk to Steve Stratton, Author of Shadow Tier, A Lance Bear Wolf Thriller Steve Stratton is a veteran of the United States Army and former member of the Secret Service. He started his military career at the White House Communications Agency supporting the needs of Presidents Ford and Carter, Vice Presidents Rockefeller and Mondale and Secretary of State Henry Kissinger. His work took him around the world introducing him to new cultures, ways of thinking, and the various agencies tasked with projecting and protecting American interests abroad. The jump to the US Secret Service was an easy transition but after several years and an election campaign, Steve left for the commercial sector. Steve was awarded his Green Beret in 1986. From the 80's through 2000 he deployed with 20th Special Forces on counter-drug and training missions in the SOUTHCOM region. His civilian contractor time includes support for USCENTCOM, USSOCOM, and several intelligence agencies. Today he develops cyber security products that support the warfighter and intelligence community. When he is not working, you can find him mountain biking, trout fishing, or hunting in Colorado.

“If Army scientists and tattoo artists had highjacked a DARPA lab to create the ultimate soldier, they would have created Nick” —Connor Narciso, Wired Nick is an active duty member of The United States Army Special Forces. Commonly known as Green Berets, the Special Forces perform critical missions including direct action, counterinsurgency, foreign internal defense, special reconnaissance, and unconventional warfare. In 2013, on Nick's second combat rotation to Afghanistan, he and his Detachment fell victim to an insider attack ultimately resulting in the loss of his leg. Following a year of surgeries and initial recovery including the use of a prosthetic at Walter Reed National Medical Military Center, he returned to his unit. Refusing a military medical retirement, Nick set his sights on returning to operational status. Nick is considered the first Green Beret to return to combat as an above the knee amputee. Nick is currently serving the United States citizens as a Special Forces Warrant Officer, Assistant Detachment Commander. Find out more about Nick Lavery at https://www.machinenick.com/.
In 2015, Don Bacque released "A Walk in the Park: A Vietnam Comedy", a comedic book about his experiences in the Vietnam War, in which he served in the Army's 5th Special Forces, popularly known as the Green Berets because of their distinctive service headgear. H He stated that at least two God-inspired occurrences facilitated the completion of this book: First, he found that his memories of the war were fading but when he was packing to move to his new house he came across wartime letters he had written to his wife, Cookie, that served as the basis of his manuscript; and, second: Don was encouraged by his close friend, Carl Bauer, to join Carl's writing class where he had to submit a chapter of his life story for each class, which eventually kept him on track to finish the project. Carl Bauer didn't live to read the outcome of Don's story about his feelings on the war, but Carl's life lives on through his magnetic energy which ignited Don and so many others of us to follow our path and make a difference in life. Don details the adventure that led him to Vietnam and it is one to which we can all relate as it was “never supposed to happen.” He had mistakenly believed that his poor eyesight would spare him from combat: Why would the Army send a man who was legally blind into combat if he might lose his glasses and mistakenly shoot the wrong side?? How could a man who was afraid of heights be made to jump from planes and into war zone conflicts?? As Don recounts the many close friends he made, the lessons learned, and the gradual disillusionment he experienced as the futility of the Vietnam War became apparent, “A Walk in the Park” is an important read for all generations. To purchase the book, please visit Amazon here. The resulting work is one you will enjoy as you also learn about the foibles of military service and the true grit required of our men and women who serve and protect the United States of America and our allies! The adventure that began for Don Bacque on February 11, 1968 changed his life and led him to be the well-grounded man he is today. Inspirationally, Don is well aware that God's grace is real and that heroes, while not necessarily recognized, walk among us every day. We thank Don Bacque also for his service to our community, as he served as a Louisiana State Representative from 1988 to 1992, and was the founding chair of Leadership Lafayette. He also organized a Vietnam Veterans group in Lafayette and served as the state co-chairman of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Committee that built a monument in New Orleans to honor the 881 veterans from Louisiana who did not return from the war.

Why do veterans make the best entrepreneurs? Because they are the hungriest, the toughest, the most persistent, and the most resourceful people in existence. And even if you've never found yourself in a literal battle, picking up some of those skills will change the way you show up in your business forever. Zack Hughes is a former Green Beret with the Special Forces, whose military career ended with an injury sustained during a tour in Afghanistan. Following his time as a soldier, Zack became the COO of Elite Meet and was inspired to co-found Operators Association, a community designed to motivate, mentor, and support up-and-coming Special Operators. On this episode of No Bull Business and Brews, hosts Jason and Steve jam with Zack on Zack's early days as a young man who wanted to serve and who became a leader very quickly (and unexpectedly), the ambush that left Zack injured and set him on a new trajectory, the ups and downs of transitioning to civilian life and business, how soldiers and businesses can each benefit from the other's skills and experience, and how Zach and his team are preparing the next generations of exceptional operators. Tune in for an impactful interview with an American warrior who's been at the top as a soldier and an entrepreneur. What You'll Learn: How Zach earned a solid reputation with his new team through a combination of hard work, life experience, and a sense of how to provide real value to others What combat looks like in real life to those in the middle of it (because it's nothing like the movies) Why the most famously "cringe-y" social media platform out there actually ended up being one of the foundations of Zack's incredible success on social media And much more! Favorite Quote: "And truly, what I found big-picture here is another mission, something to get behind, something to be passionate for… I don't know how many of those you get in life. And so for me to be able to be still with my guys, I get to be around people that are constantly fighting for their dreams and their purpose. And I gotta be honest with you guys, I'm just glad to be around people that are hungry as shit every day now." -Zack Hughes Connect with Zack: Instagram Facebook LinkedIn YouTube TikTok Elite Meet Operators Association How To Get Involved: Jason on Instagram Steve on Instagram Enjoyed the episode?

While there have been veterans who have competed in the reality show: Survivor: Season 43, never has there been a non-veteran winner who gave away the entirety of the $1,000,000 prize to veteran organizations. Until now. In this week's Team Never Quit Podcast, meet Mike Gabler who did just that. What an engaging conversation Mike and Marcus have, as Mike shares some of the behind the scenes stories related to the program. Mike, a Texas native, comes from a family of veterans, but he serves his country in a significantly different way. He is a heart valve specialist, working with top surgeons and cardiologists - a multicultural group of people with a common focus - to take care of the patient. At age 43, Mike was the oldest contestant of the season, and the second oldest competitor in the history of Survivor. The lack of food and nourishment was really getting to him, yet he excelled in individual competition. He explained that he gained strength by thinking about the military members who are currently fighting, as well as those who've passed, and who've sacrificed so much for our nation. “I'm gonna donate the entire prize – the entire million dollars – in my father's name, Robert Gabler, who's a Green Beret, to Veterans in need who are struggling from psychiatric problems, PTSD, and to curb the suicide epidemic.” “Lot of heroes served in our military. We do this for fun; they do this for real.” Thumbnail Image: - CBS via Getty Images In this episode you will hear: • Everybody on Survivor likes Type 2 fun, because that's what it was.
